Instructions on Not Giving Up

by Ada Limón

More than the fuchsia funnels breaking out of the crabapple tree, more than the neighbor’s almost obscene display of cherry limbs shoving their cotton candy-colored blossoms to the slate sky of Spring rains, it’s the greening of the trees that really gets to me. When all the shock of white and taffy, the world’s baubles and trinkets, leave the pavement strewn with the confetti of aftermath, the leaves come. Patient, plodding, a green skin growing over whatever winter did to us, a return to the strange idea of continuous living despite the mess of us, the hurt, the empty. Fine then, I’ll take it, the tree seems to say, a new slick leaf unfurling like a fist to an open palm, I’ll take it all.

Anakin: I’m sorry, why am I the litterbox baby and why is Grogu the dumpster baby?

Obi-Wan: *points at Anakin* dessert-

Anakin: okay, fair.

Obi-Wan: *points at Grogu* found his egg in a dumpster.

Anakin: …excuse me?

Grogu: Patu! ‘Whateth the fucketh.’

Cody: *doesn’t have enough caff for this*

Rex: *doesn’t want to deal with it*

Ahsoka: *excited for storytime*

Obi-Wan: Yeah, some guy threw me in a dumpster, I found this huge ass egg in there, force said take this, I said Lunch! Force said No A Baby, I said :/ ew but I took him and here he is.

Grogu: Patu! ‘Wow’

Anakin: Wow. He literally is a dumpster baby. I thought you were gonna say he digs through trash cans or something.

Grogu: Patu! ‘I do not!’

Obi-Wan: He does. He goes sorta feral if he thinks you’re hiding something tasty, but I’m sure you already knew that much, considering you do too.

Ahsoka: One time, Grogu bit over a piece of raw nerf steak.

Obi-Wan: Give Anakin a few weeks. He’ll start fighting you for raw meat too.
